First-time-buyers are being priced out of the property market in London, with the average novel purchaser being asked to fork out a staggering £109,000 deposit. Many home-hunters are therefore forced to broaden their horizons, and look for their dream home outside the perimeters of the city. 

With this in mind; buyers who are eager to secure an affordable home that enjoys a trendy London postcode should look no further than the award winning Peckham Place by Notting Hill Genesis – where just three Shared Ownership properties remain. Fast becoming one of London’s property hotspots, the chance to own a sumptuous Peckham pad is an opportunity that first-time buyers will not want to miss. 

Occupying a prime position on Peckham’s Queen’s Road – a mere five-minute walk from Queens Road Station – Peckham Place epitomises convenient London living. This popular, attractively designed development has been in-demand over the past few months, and only three stylish Shared Ownership properties remain; including a one-bedroom apartment, and a two and three-bedroom duplex. Each of these homes benefit from their own private outdoor space in the form of a balcony and/or terrace, in addition to beautifully landscaped communal gardens; with a luscious pocket park, picnic tables and sun loungers. Private parking is also available for the two duplexes.

James Munson, Head of Marketing for Notting Hill Genesis, comments: “Our award-winning development, Peckham Place, provides a uniquely affordable opportunity to own a home in one of London’s most sought-after locations by purchasing a share of a property’s full market value. This will also mean they can secure their home with a much lower deposit than if they were to purchase the property outright. 

The quality of the homes on offer at Peckham Place and benefits of purchasing through the Shared Ownership scheme can be evidenced by the popularity of this development so far.  We therefore anticipate an influx of inquiries for the final three homes we have on offer, and urge prospective buyers to register their interest as soon as possible.”

The three remaining Shared Ownership properties have been designed to combine style with practical convenience; offering light and flexible accommodation that is both versatile and comfortable Situated on the 5th floor, the last remaining one-bedroom Shared Ownership apartment enjoys 544 sq. ft of space; with a contemporary open plan kitchen/living room naturally lending itself to be the hub of the home.
